First, what is apple cider vinegar? Marisa Bella, would you like to try this one?

Ok, well she's got the right idea in some parts. But apple cider vinegar is made from cider or apple must. It comes unpasteurized which I recommend and organic of course.

If you do purchase an organic unpasteurized apple cider vinegar product, you will see that contains mother of vinegar, which looks like it has cobwebs floating in the bottle.

Mother of vinegar is a substance composed of a form of cellulose and acetic acid bacteria that develops on fermenting alcoholic liquids. It's loaded with living nutrients and healthy bacteria. Maybe that's why Miss Bella gets excited to take her apple cider vinegar shot in the morning?

Here's a no brainer, if your allergic to apples stay away from apple cider vinegar.

"The quality of apple cider vinegar tablets will vary. A 2005 study compared eight brands of apple cider vinegar supplements and found that the ingredients didn’t correspond with the ingredients listed on the packaging, and that the chemical analysis of the samples led researchers to question whether any of the products were actually apple cider vinegar or whether they were just acetic acid."

What I recommend is brushing your teeth before you drink the apple cider vinegar and brush immediately after. That way you can try to be more protective of the enamel on your teeth and help prevent teeth damage.

Other than that, use everything in moderation. Too much of any one thing isn't good for your health. There's many options out there optimal health. Explore them all and find what works best for your body and needs.
